I would like to add him on Facebook?

So, do you send message when you want to add someone on Facebook who blocked option to send friend request? Not sure what kind of message to send him as I don't know him well, but surely like to know him better lol.

Nothing wrong with wanting to add him on Facebook but you could always mention it to him in person. It’s ok to be shy but the fact that he has those settings for being added online tells me he may usually approve only family and friends, probably even a private guy. You should at least chat with him about this face to face so you can break the ice and get to know each other.

That would be the great idea except that I don't have to many chances to see him personally. Even when I do, it's always some kind of rush so don't have a time to chat for too long, like you said to break the ice first.😕

In a genuine way, I’d say to take one of those open windows of opportunity. Like in the moments you can’t chat too long, fortunately you’re not having to introduce yourself, so you can get right to asking about social media. You could just lead into it like ‘hey so and so how’s it going? How’s your day been so far?’ Or whatever you want to say, chat a tiny bit and before he has to leave, say ‘really quick before you go, I wanted to ask if we could add each other on Facebook? We just never really get the chance to chat and I’d like to get to know you better’. It’s very ballsy, but it’s honest, straight to the point and he will likely find it attractive that you took the situation by the horns. On the other hand, since you don’t really get a chance to chat with him because of busyness, that could foreshadow what to expect in the future. Surely to want to talk on a personal level and get to know him then you have somewhat of a crush, but if he’s too busy to approach and chat face to face, then how will he have time to prioritize your relationship?
